It seems you are missing some undeclared dependencies. Try adding libpopt-dev, zip, unzip, python-gnome2, python-gnome2-desktop; I found these in an old version of the jhbuild page, <a href="http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/index.php?title=Development_Team/Jhbuild&amp;oldid=21330#Dealing_with_dependencies">http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/index.php?title=Development_Team/Jhbuild&amp;oldid=21330#Dealing_with_dependencies</a><br>

&gt; The first thing to do is to check ~/.sugar/default/logs/shell.log for<br>

</div>Thanks. I didn&#39;t know where to start. So is it the gconf problem? I<br>
have the Ubuntu gconf2 package installed.<br>
